Legare R. Hole III Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Legare R. Hole, III, Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in 2003 by Terrence Tysall and Ms. Patricia Hole, in memory of his best friend and her son, Lee. The Scholarship grew out of the Legare R. Hole, III, Rescue and Recovery Fund originally created in 1996, and is awarded to deserving students who are dedicated to learning about and protecting the waters of our awesome planet. It was first awarded in 2004 on the Sistema Camilo/Akumal Expedition, and has been awarded annually since.
